Description
It isn't available to create an Overpass QL which contains non-ascii characters.
Strictly, subset of Unicode characters are allowed in Overpass QL (U+0020~U+0072, U+000A). All other characters are stripped by Javascript statement in challengeForm.scala.html:99.

Research direction
Start in challengeForm.scala.html at line 99 and inspect the JavaScript filtering applied when creating an Overpass QL query. Compare that filtering with the issue's stated allowed Unicode ranges. Done means the form can create queries containing permitted non-ASCII characters without stripping them.
